White Sox Glory: For the Love of Nellie, Shoeless Joe, and Konerko
Alan Ross
With the rise of the Chicago White Sox to World Series champs in 2005 after a drought of 88 years, the magic has finally returned to the city by the lake. Behind shutdown pitching and clutch performances at every position, 105 years of White Sox baseball culminating in the club's third World Series crown, its first since 1917.
White Sox Glory is a "you are there" account of all the greats of the Second City's "second" diamond nine. The best seat in the house for reminiscing about the White Sox's epic milestones, the book is filled with the voices of players, coaches, fans, opponents, and sportswriters. Included is the all-time White Sox team, the heated rivalries, a special tribute to the Sox's seven-decade man — Minnie Minoso — and complete rosters from the White Sox's world championship teams.
It's picnics under the stands, exploding scoreboards, and a Thigpen from the bullpen. It's Chisox time in the Windy City.
